Small Business Program Management

Small Businesses are vital to our country’s continued growth and it is important to the ISC that small business is provided the maximum practical opportunity to compete for acquisitions awarded and managed by ISC. The ISC small business office assists small businesses, disadvantaged, women-owned, veteran owned, service disabled veteran owned and businesses located in historically underutilized business zones, as well as historically Black Colleges and Universities and Minority Institutions.

The ISC Small Business Program Managers primary goals are to expose and increase small business utilization at the Department of Energy by advocating for all small business concerns. Our office develops, creates and circulates the federal Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization (OSDBU) policy as well as trains the acquisition community to maintain a knowledgeable procurement community. The office also strives to create best practices to encourage and increase small business participation in all departmental procurement opportunities. The small business program managers are very active in the business community, providing training, and one-on-one counseling opportunities for small businesses to demonstrate and introduce their services or products to the ISC and Department of Energy.
